[jQuery] Re: Select next element ...

[Karl Swedberg]

Hi Daniele,

Try this:

$("a").click(function () {
          this.className = 'new-class';
          $(this).next('div').toggle();
}

All sorts of DOM traversing methods can be found here:

I have some troubles with my project. Here it is the problem:

I have an HTML like this

<a href="">click</a>
<div> xxxx </div>

<a href="">click</a>
<div> xxxx </div>

....

When I click on the link i want to change its class and toggle the
<div> below without using any ID.
I have no problem changing the link, but I can't find a way to select
the FIRST next element.

        $("a").click(function () {
          $(this).attr({className: "new-class"});
          $(this + " + div").eq(0).toggle();
        }

I though something like this would work, but it doesnt.
How can i select the first next element after my click element?
